They actually got something for Paulino.

QuoteThe Phillies have acquired lefthander reliever Jack Taschner from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for catcher Ronny Paulino, multiple sources have confirmed to the Daily News.

Taschner, 30, was 3-2 with a 4.88 earned run average in 67 appearances for the Giants last season. He pitched 48 innings, allowing 57 hits with 39 strikeouts and 24 walks. For his career, he is 8-4 with a 5.01 ERA in 178 games.

He provides the Phillies with another lefthanded arm in the bullpen, something the Phillies will need especially early in the season while J.C. Romero serves his 50-game suspension.

Paulino was acquired during the winter meetings from Pittsburgh for Jason Jaramillo in an exchange of catching prospects. He was hitting .194 in spring training with a home run and two RBI. He has struck out 12 times in 31 at-bats.

The deal also solidifies Chris Coste as the backup catcher behind Carlos Ruiz. When the deal for Paulino was initially made, speculation was that Coste might be on his way out. Paulino's performance this spring helped insure that was not the case.

Look for more in tomorrow's Daily News

Good deal...

And SF flipped him to Florida.

So he'll get a few big hits against the Phils this year...

it's garbage for garbage.  Taschner could only get 2 guys out:  choke dawg and white choke dawg

Well since Dunn is in the division now, maybe it will help having his personal LHP in the bullpen.

Moyer didn't pitch nearly as bad as the box indicated.  The defense was atrocious today and the wind was literally blowing straight out to left center at 30-35 MPH all day.

So the phils were the only team that played in those conditions

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Lidge gave up a 3-run bomb in the 8th as well.  Still Spring Trianing.  Not worried... yet.
